Three Owl Feathers

My children Vincent 11, Layton 9 and Crawford 7 had their first day of school today. Vincent, my oldest started Jr High. Where does the time go? First I should let you know I am not one of those moms who finds joy in the start of the school year. I enjoy the light schedule and easy joyful days of summer. I like having my boys home with me. So after dropping them off I decided to go for a walk with my husband Paul. This would be a much needed chance to blow off the stress and worry about school. As I was following our dog Asti I looked down. There under the pine trees I saw a feather. It was small but what I thought was a owl feather. I looked up to show Paul my treasure and saw that he was holding another feather a much larger feather about 8" long. Wow it was beautiful and pristine. Finally a third feather was found while walking on the hill top. How perfect three boys and three owl feathers. To make it even more magical they where all found on a blue moon and the first day of school. This to me is a good sign.

Just a few of my favorite artists

Hi, I am Monique Hoch , an artist, wife and mother of three wonderful boys.

I am An artist who has been honing my craft for the last 23 years. I work in oil (paints, sticks, pastels), watercolor, and phototgraphy. I see beauty in so many things, especially in nature. My expressionist/impressionist painting are full of colors and textures that make the work speak to me. I do my art for myself, to fill the void, to find the beauty, and to hopefully share with those who see and feel the art as I do.
